Episode notes

i was thrown in to my first experience of what we're talking about in my thirties, and all of a sudden i'm in waiting rooms and treatment rooms with strangers. And forget all the ways of, oh, self interest and etiquette and what's proper to be polite. All of a sudden you're there, and you go high. How you do? And not good. I'm afraid, me too. But that's because all of a sudden we were on the raft of life, and it made everything very direct and simple. And i think this is the humility that happensand interestingly, you know, to go back out.

There’s something about the sound of Mark Nepo’s voice that just puts me at ease. He’s been immersed in a path of spiritual inquiry for more than forty years, taught all over the world, authored more than twenty books, including the #1 New York Times bestseller The Book of Awakening, More Together Than Alone and others. His books have been translated into more than twenty languages and in 2014, Mark traveled the country with Oprah Winfrey on her sold-out The Life You Want Tour and has appeared several times on her Super Soul Sunday program.

The last time I sat down with Mark, we caught up on life, then dove into his decades-long inquiry around how we are wired to live in community, what happens when the bonds that connect us fail and how to rediscover community at a time when we seem more divided than ever. This conversation was actually recorded before the year we’ve all just been through, but it is more relevant and more needed than ever before.
